Sione 14

1“ʻOua naʻa mamahi homou loto: ʻoku mou tui ki he ʻOtua, tui foki kiate au.

2‌ʻI he fale ʻo ʻeku Tamai ʻoku ai ʻae ngaahi nofoʻanga ʻoku lahi: ka ne ʻikai, pehē kuo u tala ia kiate kimoutolu. ʻOku ou ʻalu ke teuteu ha potu moʻomoutolu.

3Pea kapau teu ʻalu, ʻo teuteu ha potu moʻomoutolu, te u toe haʻu, ʻo maʻu ʻakimoutolu kiate au; koeʻuhi ko e potu te u ʻi ai, te mou ʻi ai foki.

4Pea ko e potu ʻoku ou ʻalu ki ai ʻoku mou ʻilo, pea ʻoku mou ʻilo mo e hala.”

5Pea lea ʻa Tōmasi kiate ia, “ʻEiki, ʻoku ʻikai te mau ʻilo pe ʻoku ke ʻalu ki fē; pea ʻe fēfē ʻemau ʻilo ʻae hala?”

6Pea talaange ʻe Sisu kiate ia, “Ko au ko e hala, mo e moʻoni, pea mo e moʻui: ʻoku ʻikai haʻu ha tangata ʻe taha ki he Tamai, kae ʻiate au.

7Ka ne mou ʻilo au, pehē, kuo mou ʻilo mo ʻeku Tamai foki: pea ngata mei heni ʻoku mou ʻilo ia, pea kuo mou mamata kiate ia.”

8Pea lea ʻa Filipe kiate ia, “ʻEiki, fakahā kiate kimautolu ʻae Tamai pea mau fiemālie ai.”

9Pea pehēange ʻe Sisu kiate ia, “Filipe, he kuo pehē ni hono fuoloa ʻo ʻeku ʻiate kimoutolu, ka ʻoku teʻeki ai te ke ʻilo au? Ko ia kuo ne mamata kiate au, kuo mamata ia ki he Tamai; pea fēfē ai haʻo pehē, ‘Fakahā kiate kimautolu ʻae Tamai?’

10‌ʻOku ʻikai te ke tui ʻoku ou ʻi he Tamai, mo e Tamai ʻiate au? Ko e lea ʻoku ou leaʻaki kiate kimoutolu, ʻoku ʻikai te u lea ʻaki ʻiate au: ka ko e Tamai, ʻoku nofo ʻiate au, ʻoku ne fai ʻae ngaahi ngāue.

11Tui mai kiate au ʻoku ou ʻi he Tamai, mo e Tamai ʻiate au: pea kapau ʻe ʻikai, pea tui kiate au koeʻuhi ko e ngaahi ngāue.

12Ko e moʻoni, ko e moʻoni, ʻoku ou tala atu kiate kimoutolu, Ko ia ʻoku tui kiate au, ko e ngaahi ngāue ʻoku ou fai ʻe fai ʻe ia foki; pea te ne fai mo ia ʻoku lahi hake; koeʻuhi ko ʻeku ʻalu ki heʻeku Tamai.

13Pea ko e meʻa kotoa pē te mou kole ʻi hoku huafa, te u fai ia, koeʻuhi ke fakaongoongolelei ʻae Tamai ʻi he ʻAlo.

14Ko ia kotoa pē te mou kole ʻi hoku huafa, te u fai.

15¶ “Kapau ʻoku mou ʻofa kiate au, fai ʻeku ngaahi fekau.

16Pea te u kole ki he Tamai, pea te ne foaki kiate kimoutolu ha Fakafiemālie ʻe taha, koeʻuhi ke nofo ia mo kimoutolu ʻo taʻengata;

17‌ʻIo, ko e Laumālie ʻoe moʻoni; ʻaia ʻoku ʻikai faʻa maʻu ʻe he māmani, he ʻoku ʻikai mamata ia ki ai, pe ʻiloʻi ia: ka te mou ʻilo ia; he te ne nofo mo kimoutolu, pea nofoʻia ʻe ia ʻakimoutolu.

18“ʻE ʻikai te u tuku ke tuēnoa ʻakimoutolu: te u haʻu kiate kimoutolu.

19‌ʻOku toe siʻi, pea ʻe ʻikai mamata kiate au ʻa māmani; ka te mou mamata kiate au: koeʻuhi ʻoku ou moʻui, ʻe moʻui ʻakimoutolu foki.

20‌ʻI he ʻaho ko ia te mou ʻilo ʻoku ou ʻi heʻeku Tamai, mo kimoutolu ʻiate au, mo au ʻiate kimoutolu.

21“Ko ia ʻoku ne maʻu ʻeku ngaahi fekau, ʻo fai ki ai, ko ia ia ʻoku ʻofa kiate au: pea ko ia ʻoku ʻofa kiate au, ʻe ʻofa ʻa ʻeku Tamai kiate ia, pea te u ʻofa mo au kiate ia, pea te u fakahā au kiate ia.”

22Pea lea ʻa Siutasi kiate ia, naʻe ʻikai ko ʻIsikaliote, “ʻEiki, ko e hā te ke fakahā ai koe kiate kimautolu, kae ʻikai ki māmani?”

23Pea leaange ʻa Sisu, ʻo pehē kiate ia, “Kapau ʻoku ʻofa ha tangata kiate au, te ne fai ʻeku lea: pea ʻe ʻofa ʻa ʻeku Tamai kiate ia, pea te mā omi kiate ia, ʻo nofomaʻu mo ia.

24Ko ia ʻoku ʻikai ʻofa kiate au, ʻoku ʻikai te ne maʻu ʻeku ngaahi tala: pea ko e lea ʻoku mou ongoʻi, ʻoku ʻikai ʻaʻaku, ka ʻoku ʻae Tamai kuo ne fekauʻi au.

25“Ko e ngaahi meʻa ni kuo u tala kiate kimoutolu, ʻi heʻeku ʻiate kimoutolu.

26Ka ko e Fakafiemālie ko e Laumālie Māʻoniʻoni, ʻaia ʻe fekau ʻe he Tamai ʻi hoku huafa, te ne akoʻi ʻakimoutolu ʻi he meʻa kotoa pē, mo fakamanatuʻi ʻakimoutolu ʻi he meʻa kotoa pē, ʻaia kuo u leaʻaki kiate kimoutolu.

27“ʻOku ou tuku ʻae melino kiate kimoutolu, ko ʻeku melino ʻoku ou foaki kiate kimoutolu: ʻoku ʻikai hangē ko e foaki ʻa māmani, ʻa ʻeku foaki kiate kimoutolu. ʻOua naʻa mamahi homou loto, pea ʻoua naʻa manavahē ʻia.

28Kuo mou ongoʻi ʻeku lea kiate kimoutolu, ‘ʻOku ou ʻalu, pea u toe haʻu kiate kimoutolu.’ Ka ne mou ʻofa kiate au, te mou fiefia, ko e meʻa ʻi heʻeku pehē, ʻOku ou ʻalu ki he Tamai: he ʻoku lahi ʻeku Tamai ʻiate au.

29Pea ko eni kuo u fakahā ia kiate kimoutolu, ka ʻoku teʻeki hoko, koeʻuhi ʻoka hoko ia, ke mou tui.

30Ngata mei heni, ʻe ʻikai te u lea lahi kiate kimoutolu: he ʻoku haʻu ʻae ʻeiki ʻoe māmani, ka ʻoku ʻikai ha meʻa ʻiate au.

31Ka koeʻuhi ke ʻilo ʻe māmani ʻoku ou ʻofa ki he Tamai; pea mo ʻeku fai ʻo hangē ko e fekau ʻae Tamai kiate au. “Tuʻu hake, ke tau ʻalu ʻi heni.
